Either they are trespassers or they are not trespassers. Your reference to the third reich is not even remotely coherent.

Israel was founded according to a United Nations partition to create both a Palestinian and Israeli states. There was certainly nothing illegal about it. Israel created cities, universities and orchards on desert land, raised their kids, and became highly successful. The Palestinians squandered their years with the sole intent of wiping Israel off the map, and thus have nothing to show for their lives. And now you people want to blame Israel for that. It's pathetic.

Actually, the partition plan was rejected by one side and never went into legal effect. The UN Security Council never approved it.

The land was stolen by the Israeli colonists. Anyone would fight back.

"In 1947, the United Nations approved the partition of Palestine into two states, one Jewish and one Arab.[9] "

See above. You can scream "LALALALALA I'm not listening" all you want, but you know you're wrong.

Yes, the General Assembly approved it. That approval had no legal force without the consent of the parties and the Security Council, and nobody seriously claims it did.

What about "it did not enter into legal force" don't you get?

Been taking advice from the leader of Iran again?

OK - if Hamas wants to be eliminated then, let them keep up their attacks

Question The Arabs Are Flinging Rockets AGAIN!

Isn't their stated goal to destroy Israel? Don't they refuse to recognize Israel's status as a nation? Who would expect any other behavior in light of this?
